disappearing act sms 490/500 šµ
I am angry
SMS requires to be over the max number of tetryons at start, to time the gift chests well (play with the 22h refresh), to do the idiot with the cheapest ship to cloak (d3).
With lag at event reset in my server yesterday, I missed my window to open the chest in time šµ
During the 48h that it runs I cannot do any cloaked pvp if I want to complete this event.
Please increase the score per kill made from 10 point or scale it up by hostile level (starting at 10).
Or make it 3 days like it was previously!
yes that would make it possible to complete the event, but I also want to be able to use my cloak during those three days for something other than killing stupid level tens with my D3
You are doing uninteresting events, that you cannot do them without donating
New arc, old problems: Disappearing Act is still unfair for lower players
@tropic ibex @earnest harness
pay attention to problem
This event to kill explorers with battleship is ridiculously unfair. I donāt have a battleship with long enough warp range to match my other ships. So I have a high target. Have to hit a couple hundred smaller explorers
do you have the discovery and the disco-taxi research? (the summon one)
@wanton copper I went into the Disappearing Act event over my limit due to battle pass pulls from June, I also made sure not to pull a chest too early and get just the speed ups due to the small cap. I hit a few hostiles until I was at 100 Tetryons left, and pulled my chests on cool down. And was still not able to make the SMS final milestone. We need a better way to source tetryons if this is going to continue to be an issue.
That would have required to recall 6 miners and after basis relo ā send 6 miners back. Thus = 6x disco. My method was better. The event is a design failure
6miners? You max refine every single day twice or what?
4* refinery is so crap that I won't bother with more than minimum refines. Except for ore which I have in territory.
What sucks is Disappearing Act requires spending more tetryons than you get from 3 daily refills. I AM 2 TETRYONS SHORT OF COMPLETING BC GAME MECHANICS PREVENT ME
3x4 star + 3x5 star
Disappearing Act: Do everything right, start fully stocked with Tetryons, start early so you can get max number of replenishments ⦠and still end up 1 cloaked kill short of completion. This is bad math! Please fix!
Guys, they KNOW the tetryons arenāt there for most people to fairly complete the milestones. They plan it like that. Thatās why there is a tetryon pack in the store as well as cloaking unlocks. They donāt care about fair, they care about keeping enough people chasing packs and spending that $$$
Seriously, just put back the extra tetryons that were originally in the milestone rewards. As it is, it's completeable IF you have a low enough level cloakable ship AND you start the event out already over max tetryons AND your tetryon collection timing lets you collect twice during the event. Or if you acquire a new cloak. Otherwise, you cannot complete it without those extra tetryons.
OR restore the extra tetryons that USED to be in the milestone rewards.
I expect youāre correct here. But if true it really shows how bad scopley is, they make money in so many other ways, throwing an extra 50-100 tetryons to people is nothing.
I personally will NEVER spend a dime on tetryons!
Theyāve said dozens of times now they want more events to be not completable by everyone without extra effort ($$$) and several times they changed event names to be āheroicā or listed them as such here in discord announcements, giving them the cover to say most people shouldnāt expect to finish.
They are gonna screw around and find outā¦
If you play patient and get cloaking refits for all the g3 ships at the right time you can at least expect full completions for 9 events maximum
or just aim for mid-way completion, no stress, half the payout, etc
I missed the window on opening the claim, so won't complete this one. Ohwell
People have been saying that for years now, look at the new galaxy research and how quickly the anger over the several year basic path of that died down after an honestly minimal adjustment that still only rewards people who dump thousands into the game weekly.
@mods Heavy Hitters SLB event could use a minor tweak. Almost everyone seems to crowd into Penumbra since Eclipse hunting is the most efficient path. So instead, I would suggest limiting eligible targets to Faction ships only. That would also increase the challenge and make it more interesting, imo
it's interesting to shoot more and more triangles? š
Just going on what everyone else has said. Would be great to know they're not, bc I was looking forward to them š
As far as I know thatās based on misperception
Waaaahhh. Make everything easy to finish. ššššš
This is ridiculous. Put a completely useless officer on the bridge... should have been for spock meta... not ortegas...
Uhura milestones are way too high. interceptor vs batleship should be vidar vs probes and 33's will take forever
My 39 just did a run and ended up with 3280 points out of 19.95k required
Shoehorning people into using a specific type of ship vs ship is problematic for higher ops levels. If someone didn't invest in a D4 and went romulan, they have to rely on what..a Saladin...if they invested in it. You can't assume everyone has every type of maxed ship at all ops levels
ops 42. 4k per Vidar run with 53.2 k top milestone....Guess that's not an option..
Spent 5 hours in a Stella last night to get 136k points š Was rethinking life choices at one pointš
it's just a really bad assumption thinking everyone has every type of ship for their ops level
Recruit Uhura <???> - SMS (guessing) is just Retrieving...
33's are giving 80 points per (borg priobes)
i'm ops 20
just do interceptor v battleship and hit as high as you can
Vidar against Borg probes make this one a no-brainer, but I'm not there yet.
since the probes stops at liv33 I don't think it will be a good way to make points for higher ops players
nope, it sucks...lol
Kehra-leveling day it is.
Oi, the bonus for using the officer isnāt working š£
Ortegas on the bridge vs Swarms is not giving double points @here
Investing this!
None of the officer boosts are working š”
Uhura worked for me
About done with this game
If you put them as capt instead as on the bridge boost works, seems someone messed up event descriptions again...
Doesn't matter to any of us f2p/c2p players, none of us have Ortegas yet anyway
The amount of swarms needed to complete this is unreasonable. I put in all the work with my Stellas killing level 38-40 Explorers yesterday, then saw the top milestone was going to be lowered. Can you lower these crazy top milestones now? Before I kill 141 swarms? š¤£
@wet scaffold be happy you got something mine never counted
@wet scaffold same for today not counting
The guy who came up wth the Ortega/Uhura Events never playerd this game outside a dev environmet. Nobody except some whales has each ship ready to do all. I will not spent all of my freetime to grind hostiles for a fraction of an officer....
I mean, it's not a PokĆ©mon game? Gotta get em all! š
I donāt have any of them but did swarm n ship to ship event n still won both eventsā¦.. u donāt nesseciarily need them to win
The problem is the scaling of the milestones with ops level is terrible. I have to kill 53k worth of points at ops 42 without at ops 42 equivalent interceptor
And Ortegas perk doesnāt even match up vs Swarms, thatās SNW Spock
She would work as synergy to spike though, so it's not like she's without use at all.
Confirmed that Uhura is not giving double points versus Battleships with an Interceptor as well.
Posted about it in #ā”-mod-announcements
"Slotting Ortega and Uhura in the left bridge slot will count the double points for today's events" Give me some money to buy packs and I will be able to use that whale tip!
Just the tip?
Just want to add my voice to not appreciating the need of specific ship type. Only battleship I had was stella and wouldāve needed obscene number of explorers to complete itā¦
@wanton copper to reiterate what has been said I too only have a low power interceptor (vidar) yet I'm expected to score 35k points to complete event. That's hundreds of kills as I cannot kill high lvl ships
The milestones should be much lower to accommodate all players
Thanks for letting me know about this. I'm speaking with the team and we're going to look at the difficulty of this event to see if it needs improvements moving forward
Thank you. When the milestones are set too high, it turns an event into a hassle. A lot of us will still do it because we need the officer shards and matsābut it shouldnāt take anyone two hours of grinding for each event.
I was killing 39-41s in my stella average the 40s point I had to kill 304 to get the points.. and that was after they reduced the points required to 136k from 190k something
How hard is it to publish an event schedule and the schedule be right? āJuly 6-9ā was āmat spend and directivesā. Mat spend lasted 1 day.
Wheres mining mastery and othe side missions , where suppose do today ???
Mining was only scheduled for tomorrow. What other event are you missing?
I used ortega as left officer with swarm frankie A ko it with 3 49 swarm
Listed in event mining mastery
What do you mean?
The battlepass event?
Frankie a crew usually pike morea tlan .... yes ortega
Yes š·
Points total officer bonus just dumb today
Okay Iām sorry but I donāt understand you
Swarm and interceptor events totals still huge and ortega being used swarm ko my frankie A in 3 swarm
Not a fan of two ginormous hostile events, swarm and battleship, in same day. Phhbbttt!
Yes, but what is their relation with mining mastery?
My Ortega's & Ulhura event just spins i cant see what to do. Any help?
One is to kill swarms, the other is to kill battleships while using an interceptor ship
Restart
Please lower the difficulty already @wanton copper .. I'm killing in Esto - level 42-44 battleships with my D4 which is 4.4m power.. I don't own the SNW uhura officer yet, but killing 10 hostiles gave me 12.7k points.. I need to fly 8 times to DS system which takes 7 and a half minutes only to fly there..
ty Tommie but what lvl swarms?
I even activated 2 exocombs with it
And my USS Cerritos can't get near there to give my D4 a buff long enough to even think about efficiently
I appreciate the info TommiePicard
Let me show you something 1 sec
Stfc.space has all info for current and past events - itās also grouped per bracket (ops levels) on rewards and such. For this event, see:
If you remove the whole shabang behind events/ from the url, it just shows all currently ongoing events
You can move your base to reduce the warp time and to allow your Cerri to be in the same system.
it's a possibility if there wasn't this mining event running too lol
Can you find mining event ?
You can mine the G4 as well.
There's G4 ore in the middle of that hub you were using
Says mining mastery i cant see the event
@gilded warren https://stfc.space/events/62c702a810e210b656313a37
That event isn't live yet, wait for tomorrow or the next day.
Says finishes in 20 hrs
Post a SS of what you mean.
97k with a 3.5 million d4 - takes me hours.. thatās ridiculous. How can scopely ever expect g4 players having three different ships (g3 epic or g4 common rare) ready for such events??? If scopely surprises then it is only in the direction where you think it couldnāt get worse..but actually it does get worseā¦
I agree to this ^ totally bs
42 minutes of farming and not even halfway into the points I need for the final milestone..
Used pike ortega chen ko my kelvin where usual crew doesnt , do you qa test this before putting it out
Not recieving double points either
I am over 100 hostiles killed and yet only have around 59k points while I need 97k.. i'm already busy with it for an hour and half.. insane
i'd rather throw my money in to the garbage bin
Are you recieving double points ?
I don't own any of the officers..
use ortega in the left officer slot they say
I did meant i could ko less and no double points
how much officer shards do the missions source?
I got 2 had 36/38
I only have 13/38 for ortega..
Anyway back to BORING grind
if the game is too hard, you are too weak š
What's too "hard"? š
read the comments about the actual events š
No if it was actually working properly to start with i just finished, interceptor vs battleship
Double points or using ortega was not a plus
This crew counts for both missions if you have them while killing swarm. Bonus points for swarm too
I have otrega who is middle officer
Snw Spock
Information is gold , would save alot of bs was provided
That's interesting, but I don't have an uhura to try it
Me either yet uhura
I had bought the 50 buck pack for each so figured I would try them. Wanted them for 52 plus hostiles
Am I the only one that is totally bored with this arc? Is this the theme of arcs now
Yall getting all these bugs wrong. They're scopely mind puzzles for us to solve and make work!
@wanton copper so if I read the notes correctly one of the servers will have time difference working on their side as an attacker during the normal sleep cycle of the defender. How do you guys plan to balance that?
They intend for us to use gc to coordinate sleep behaviour across the entire server, so everyone is always fit, ready to go and completely synchronised.
I can see the activity on my server and see who is east coast vs west coast and I am curious if peak activity of the server is taken into account. As a night shift person my raiding is almost always during prime sleeping hours. Hardly ever get caught or run off.
Iād love to know the details of the incursion war. Is it just pvp and raids in certain systems? Will killing miners and floaters count towards pts?
WTCā¦.. level 41 has to do 39k points and a level 45 has to do 136k points in these stupid events. Did you even consider the time required to accomplish these events since you will be forcing people to use ships that may not be their primary warship for their level?! No one except maybe Uber whales maintain more than one ship type with the same combat power. To accomplish this event I am going to have to spend 3+š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬ hours again grinding ships for one event reward.
How are you so disconnected from the mechanics of your own game?
Agree, theyāre horrible events, but can also kinda see why theyād want to make people work for free unlocks of 2 rare officers
With the reminder that you clearly didn't build the right ships. Why u no build all the ships?
Ortega event is still not giving out points using my legionary
Interceptor not battleship
Legions is a battleship. Was giving points but now not
Different event today interceptor vs battleship
Supposedly working f I r interceptors now .... i did the mission git 2 shards i needed get ortega
Well dang it.
Itās not even a full unlock⦠š¢
Definitely something going on w Uhura HH. Many of the kills arenāt registered. I hit a wall at about 27k, and at that point one out of maybe seven kills was counting.
Actually glad its not working didnt for me work
The attack / defence schedule is I believe reverse on the second run of the event, so everyone is in the same boat once
@wanton copper Are there any updates on when LV19 and lower players will be treated fair and will be able to earn the monthly officer shards like everyone else?
Didn't get the "Recruit Ortegas Swarm -SMS" or the "Recruit Uhura Battleship HH - SMS" today. Even though a LV15 player could have easily done them
can we have actual timings for the incursions for each server? this doesn't really make it very clear... I'm sure the FAQ said there will be 2x24hr events this month, this shows 3?
Its one day per region
Timings will come with the IGN, so probably tomorrow
Loved the typo at the end of part 6 of the arc mission. Went to grab a screen shot and my phone had issues... but [system] is funny still.
Thanks, but you are not who I posed the question to.
So you donāt trust the answer or you simply donāt like it?
Also have you heard of DMs? Quite useful as opposed to posting on an open forum where thereās over 100.00 members.
If you complete all the events for them through the arc, youāll unlock them both for free
See, thats my kind of humor š
Come for the information, stay for the sarcasm
Heavy hitter event is still a joke. Penumbra is once again a traffic jam of all levels.
Swarm?
I never get these retrieving events. There are no dogs in the game.
@mighty star swarm is not worth anywhere near the points eclipse is and everyone knows it.
I disagree unless you are << Ops 30
That might depend on your level
The larger DS swarms are plenty big and the FA earns a lot
Thereās a time/cost analysis to consider in such a competitive leaderboard. Eclipse are far faster to get to and more consistent in point rewards. Swarms take long travel times, have high repair costs, and provide wisely varied points.
What's with the lousy points for today's BP event š”
What do you mean? that looks like normal domination scoring to me.
So, um, yeahā¦that gas ticketed event, would love to do it. But um, what is the goal?
Clear localisation cache
Yeah 20k sounds right to me
How do you mean?
Yāall need to fix these stupid damn brackets. Why is an ops 44 competing against 46/47 players? I can understand pls 42-45 for a bracket but 42-47 is dumb. You canāt compete against someone who has access to g4 rare ships when you donāt have access.
I have to kill 10x more to even stand a chance
Those scores aren't from a G4 rare ship, that's almost certainly Stella or FA
Wrong. They are using their pilums and Stellaās in the same system running crit crews on their pilum
Then use more Stellas
Exactly my point! I canāt compete against that without having 5 Stellaās which I sure as heck donāt have
The brackets are broken af
Itās bs that after upgrading several buildings and research that you just barely climb in domination. The points are way to high when one basically does half the base and 6 researches just to move up one tier in domination
Look back at yāallās records for the last 2 times you ran this event and tell me if anyone under ops 46 placed even in the top 10.
I can guarantee you wonāt find a single player under 46 that was able to stay up against them.
Their research is better, their ships are better, every bit about ops 46-47 is better than an ops 42-45
Done that twice, no dice.
Some players have had to do that multiple times to get it retrieved. I'd try again a few more times
I see š¬š¬ I thought you meant the mining event
You realize how stupid that is? *hits the tv couple more timesā
I'm just telling you how to get past it.
For me, one restart is fine. I'm on pc though
I got it after 1 too
Took me 3 more, but it worked š¤š
@white bramble I can do that every day, if not more. Quite fed up with all the stupid bugs that are never fixed.
Game main language is English. Would be good if Scopely manages to deliver language files baked into the game.
Have you ever checked the vast quantities of data use?
Iām a level 45. I placed 2nd the first time and 7th the second time.
You refering to mobile data?
Or storage space on device?
No, both WiFi and mobile. Which I track in a third party app.
Yes I have noticed. Compared to other games of its type STFC uses the same if not less
That is another point entirely. Game is also hogging quite a bit of space indeed. I'm ok-ish with that, but wish there was a way to clear up gathered data. But this is one of the least of issues this game has.
Yes the storage the game takes is quite large. On IPhone I find itās easy to just reinstall after a few months and carry on playing
Itās a temporary solution to a problem
Tbh a good cache clean is good from time to time
Afraid to do that, as I already lost an account + purchases once before. It is also not a solution.
If all app developers would think like that I would be reinstalling hundreds of apps every month.
Thatās why you take a screenshot of your playerID and make sure you have a ScopleyID or Game Centre logged in. I reinstalled like 4 times since I started playing and I never get deleted
Compared to other games itās style STFC does fairly similarly in most things
Did you sleep?
My buddy ops 47 who wins 1st every time is getting 120-160m per kill where Iām getting 50-60m per kill.
So I have to put in 3x more effort because he can hit higher systems
Thatās why these brackets are broken AF
LOL Yep. Thatās what kept me from 1st place. The first one was a lot of work. The second time wasnāt really much effort.
Anyone not get credit in Uhura and Ortega meta event after finishing the related SMS?
Yea like I said you have to put in 3x more effort and kills
Thatās true of any LB event, though. They all take a lot of effort, so you really need to have the time and the desire to do well.
The top score has over 30x yours 40min into it. Do you believe that difference is a pilum?
Nope itās related to a lot of things 47s have over 44s. Thatās why I said the brackets are broken. Put me up against 42-45 and it would be fair. My effort would equal their effort. You add in their ship advantage it all makes their grind 100x easier than mine at my ops. Their is no denying that.
@queen kindle why no Triumph Tokens in the Heavy Hitter SLB like last Arc? 2 days of grinding need better rewards.
Another LB bracket that needs to change is the 32-35 bracket.
Just got to Ops32 and both in the material spend and now the Heavy Hitter, I'm in with those that have G3 Epics and the Franklin-A.
Please fix it!!
It would be nice if when you schedule a ticketed event with the same scoring mechanism as a battle pass event the ticketed event was actually put up on time...
Of course, all of the frustration from players when daily event launches go amiss could be avoided entirely if you'd just give a detailed planned schedule.
:)
Iāve been grinding this entire time. Top 3 are level 47. Jinxter just passed me and has spent maybe half the time I have spent. Brackets are fairā¦ā¦.
Tell me again you think the brackets arenāt broken? Give me a break and wake up
@tropic ibex @earnest harness
Howās a 44 able to compete against 47 with their huge advantages
Let alone how can a 42 compete with a 47?
Which is also in my bracket
You cant, I agree
Am on another ops level and paired with folks +4 ops levels higher. But i am not complaining. It is just reality of many of the events
Exactly
What are you shooting to get those insane numbers o_O
I'm close to 3B, granted slacking a bit, but still.
swarm - which I need to shoot anyways today
Hmm I am also shooting 41 Swarms with regular PSL (SNW) setup.
Swarm
And a Stella doing 39 Traders in Exchange.
No jaylah :\
Iām not using Jayla
> 100 M per shot (Swarm 49)
SNW Pike (cap) / SNW Spock and Khan on side
I tested SNW Pike - it is way worse than the setup above for me. I guess it depends as always on many factors
What crew you running then? SNW officers give you 2x points
I'm using PMK on Stella
Dont care about Heavy Hitter. I will end up to be top 10 and definitely not more than #4 so putting effort into it does not make sense
I just did the swarm ortega thing
The point is you should have the same chance with the same effort as others
23 mins later heās now 4 billion ahead of me when he was less than a billion ahead of me. Btw. Iām still farming as much and as quickly as possible
Haven't tried hitting higher Swarms and my daileys don't require that yet, but might give it a try.
How can I possibly keep up? I canāt. Again all top 3 are ops 47
Pike Moreau Khan is giving me more points than Chen Kang Khan (used Chen since not sure what to use really and I'm shooting Eclipse Traders)
Some day you will be Ops 47 - Dont get frustrated
Will try Kang Spock on Franklin-A after it is back in base; who to use instead of Jaylah?
Not the point man. Point is they need to fix the brackets. I donāt mind competing on a fair ground. There is such a VAST difference between 42-45 and 47
There is absolutely no reason we should be paired against that ops
Jalylah cap abaility is the ressources you get - that is not of relevance for the event
This venue on discord is about feedback towards events. This event is STILL BROKEN with the brackets
They should address that on the future functions of this event.
I know they wonāt because they honestly donāt give a rats crap about their players. They do this on purpose to instigate you to spend money. Honestly itās done the opposite for me. Due to this I refuse to spend money.
A lot in my alliance feel the same and Iām in one of the larger whale alliances
@wanton copper sorry for the tag, but how does server maintenance tie in with the Incursion? Are peace shields nullified as well?
11 mins later Iām now 7 billion from him. Still farming as fast as I can. So heās gained 3 billion on me in the same time frame
Parz has done 8 billion in the time Iāve done 1 billion
But ya @queen kindle youāre rightā¦. There arenāt extreme differences between ops 44 and ops 47ā¦..
#sarcasm
Anyways Iām done with this event. No point in competing. Itās like trying to win a race against a tiger after having your legs removed.
A Rhino š
Will give this a try
4-17M spread of points on Lv41 Swarms.
No gauranteed crits either
Youāre not competing against ops 47. You are the top of your bracket at least.
So youāll have a great chance to win top 3
For the Complete New Missions event, I've done the Core Missions and Course Corrections.
I'm not finding Conflagration or The Mechanics of Resentment in the Holodeck.
Am I just too early? I.e., will they show up in the next few days?
I'm glad to see that you're actually trying now, and that that 30x lead has dwindled to 3x. Now that we can see what you're capable of, it's just a matter of keeping it up and you'll have your 4th place and be one of those players "under 46 in the t10."
Perhaps in time you'll find additional new ways of closing the gap and improve upon your performance.
Um every billion I gain they gain 4 - 8 billion. How am I catching up?
I mean this in the nicest way possible but I think your math is incredibly inaccurate
criticals are heavily influenced by prime research, various other research and crew.
Iāve got all the primes
A Franklin A of a Ops47 is way more powerful than yours. If they are equally motivated - I doubt you have a chance to win
I donāt have access to any of this which increases base damage to g4 ships. FA is a g4 ship. This also increases their crit chances by a tremendous amount. Again all 46+
In terms of relative gains you were on pace to take 11th, and have 1/30th of the top scorer. Now you're going for 4th and only 1/3rd of the top score. As 11th would put you outside of the t10 designation you considered important, this 4th placing would be a victory.
And nothing about the event changed, merely your approach.
Do I think you'll win if everything remains the same? no, not really, but you'll beat every single 44 in the bracket.
I once saw a documentary on fairness of professional competition. Short version. It is never fair, but you can put some basics in to give it at least some touch of fairness. I think Scopely is trying, or what would you suggest?
It's not perfectly fair, and I don't think they need it to be. I'm sure Scopely wants something like mostly fair, and mostly competitive.
Yes, Iāll beat every 44 but wonāt have a chance in hell against a 47 so why are they in my bracket? You seriously just proved my point.
It can be fair. I can understand a 1 tier difference in an event but 2 tiers especially with the FA is a HUGE difference.
Hell how is a 42 suppose to compete against a 47?
Again why are they in that bracket?
Itās not hard. Adjust the brackets. Ez actually
Why do they need to? they just need to have enough slots in the competition to make a difference vs other 42s
Why? Because youāll have more people willing to actually try if they actually have a chance at the top 3
You might even have an increase in sales. How? Happy people spend money
Upset people donāt
Increasing number of brackets means decreasing rewards still in your updated version, right?
I considered buying SNW Ortega because of her cap ability to add 15% crit without synergy 25% with synergy but because I donāt have a soggy shot in hell why bother?
I personally believe that there is one core lesson in this game. Focus on Ops Growth and everything else just supports that goal. Many disagree with it, but I believe in it. And in this case it proves my point
Iād rather less rewards and fair competition then unfair competition with higher rewards
Itās about knowing you won fair and square
Personally, reducing the the quality of competition seems outside of fair and square.
How is it reducing quality of competition?
You want to remove the strong people from your bracket.
Do you know why they have the special Olympics? Itās because paring those with disabilities vs those that donāt is an unfair advantage
Wrong. Iām saying pair equal ops with equal ops
Then there's zero competition because the populations are so small.
Do you want to win a fraction of a frame?
Wrong again. Most of my server is between 42-45
Well not most but I would say a solid 100 or so people are
I support @marsh thistle idea. Only same ops level. On my ops level there is no one else on the entire server š
Iād say thatās a fair segment.
Na Iām saying within a reasonable ops range
There is such a huge difference between 44 and 47. There is even a larger difference between 42 and 47
The difference between 42 and 44 is basically nothing
Nice coincidence to be at the top of your bracket.
42-45 would be a solid bracket
46-49 is a solid bracket
No not at the top. Iād love to see 45s
Iām curious what ops are you @queen kindle
44
How are you doing in your wonderful bracket?
Too busy to play right now
How about the last 2 times they ran this same event?
Don't remember first time, but last time I was doing something else more important
Lowish placement, don't recall.
So these SLBs donāt apply to you. You seem to not compete in these type of things as outside time is more consuming. I can see why you donāt care as much.
No. It does not. 1.9 GB per month data transfer. That is more than sending a lot of photos over messenger. In fact, it always tops the list of all apps sending data, even Google.
I do compete in them, just not recently. I push ops and my ship/research are weak right now.
1.9GB? š³
To me these are grind events, where effort wins. The difference between a pilum and a valdore are nothing and not the cause of the staggering difference in scoring.
At least you admit there is as staggering difference
For you it was, until you decided to try.
So every billion I do and they do 8 billion isnāt staggering?
Each month. Data use varies between 150 to 410 MB per day
There's too much unknown information to determine the size of the difference right now. What I do know is that 30x is not it, that's just not trying.
Actually I just checked mine is 1.9GB too and my month isnāt up yet š¬
But I play a lot on mobile data
On Unlimited Data Plan - No longer offered š
1 hour later Iāve not fallen behind more. He was at 43m and is now at 76m. I went from 14.6 to 19.9 in that same time frame. Again all top 3 are open 47
Iām on 30GB so iām fine too š¤£
I gained 5.3 billion. 1st gained 33 billion. 2nd gained 26 billion. 3rd stopped playing for about 40 mins of that and gained 8 billion. In the last 20 mins.
Thatās in 1 hour
Do we have to pay to go to other server for incursion event?
Ok @wanton copper dumb question: Why are spreading the Incursion event over 3 days then? If a whole region has their incursion on the same day can't we all have incursions on the same day then? I thought this was to lessen the load on the servers, but with this planning this just sounds stupid. I mean US Servers shouldn't be influenced by Server Load of EU Servers. Wouldn't it be more logical to have a few servers of every region on a day to help out the servers with keeping up and not causing lag?
We'll get lag regardless of how many servers are invading
In a day
It's scoperly we're talking about ffs
Please publish a very specific, accurate to the minute/hour for when shields will not work in higher level systems for each server. Cause ā¦.you might think we care, right?!
Anyways dude take the feedback or donāt. Until this game is fixed Iāll not spend a dime more. Iāll encourage others not to as well.
Done with scopely nonsense
There ya go. 536 million points on that hit. My highest is 72 million. But ya not a huge difference in ops levels.
Same crew as me
Same tier levels for officers
This incursion thing just blows up lat rush event. Great planning.
Do We know if the first server in each pairing will be first to attack?
Since you are asking, you do not know, and as you are part of we, we do not know or at least part of us does not maybe all of us.
I don't think I said it at the time but @wanton copper I hope more battle passes like the one with the chess tokens happen, because that one was really great. 
@wanton copper Server 40 (Has ops 60) vs Server 41 (51+ Ops open 1 week ago) ?????
I mean you will see once it starts if the first phase is attack or defence after that it alternates
Can anyone shed light (even a guess) on my previous question?:
#š¬-events-feedback message
Those come later. For now you can only do the core missions
@storm ridge talks some sense into these people about the 42-47 bracket bro.
@mighty star I have unlimited data. Still, it's a lot for 1 app.
Unlimited data is the most common where I live. In the land of Nokia š Even home 5g router works on a sim card š
Nut sure if mentioned already but EU servers 126 & 127 seem to be matched for incursions but they already merged 2 months ago.....
Pssst. I think you will win the event
Trust the science
Gonna find out eu is down a server so...I guess u just sit there
Scopely, I am highly irritated about the incursion events. Specifically, I am forced into moving my base without any option to opt-out of what I think is a very "stupid and pointless" event. The message you are sending is that you don't care about paying customers. I waited for a very long time for a spot to open up in this system and I am forced to lose it because of an event that I have absolutely ZERO interest in! Personally, I would much rather seen you optimize your code (with all the lag lately the game has been less enjoyable) instead of forcing users to do things they don't want to.
Perhaps this is the push I need to move away from this game. I'm sure others feel the same.
That is not the message they're sending at all. If you had no notice, logged in after maintenance and your shields didn't work and there was an active incursion? That. That is the "we don't care about you" message.
For what it's worth, the rest of those folks in (probably one of the 29 systems) will face the same problem. Plan ahead (with the ample notice given and get a spot back.)
If your interest in the game was tenuous enough that a relocation and some frustration was enough, then yeah. There's the door. We all know where it is, we make a choice every time we log into the game. Try engaging with the incursion stuff. Maybe it'll be fun even if you're not that into PvP. Hope you have more fun or find something else to do.
I respectfully disagree. It sends a terrible message in my opinion.
Itās a total of 2 days bud. Youāll be fine
Every other event you can choose to NOT participate in.
It's not about the length of time, it's about losing a base in a system that I waited months for. I will not get the spot back. I could care less if they made it for a week or a month. I want to be able to opt-out without having to move my base.
Then stay
If itās a closed system warp raiding is annoying
I get what youāre saying @wild violet but in all honesty a spot in a system isnāt all that it cracks up to be.
That's just your point of view. I disagree. Warp range, and general location is important, at least for me.
What ops are you?
It's all good that you disagree, but the point still remains that I think this is stupid.
Iām assuming you are probably in a g3 system
Yes, of course it's a G3 system. No one cares about losing their spot in Rigel. š
I can tell you as your sever ages those spots become more and more meaningless
I donāt think there is a single day that passes where I donāt relocate at least once
That's just your point of view. I never relocate
Not everyone has your point of view bud
Youāre right
But if you actually enjoy the game i would think itās hard to pass on it just because of a relocation.
Maybe have a larger player hold it for you?
It's not about being large bud. I am level 42.
I personally think base raiding is stupid and a waste of time. So now I am being forced into a base raiding event.
Yes, it's general location is the perfect spot for me.
Base raiding can be fun but yea itās also annoying
Again, if they just ran this like every other event there would be no issue. I would ignore it like I do most of the pointless events.
Well this is their first go at it. Iām sure theyāll take your feedback and do nothing about it like they do mine šš¤£
This we agree on my friend!!
They will certainly not give a rats behind, just like always.
Which is why I stopped spending a long time ago and Iāll continue to not spend
I usually buy the $19 bp but I wonāt be doing it this time
Or any future time until they adjust these damn event brackets to make it more balanced
s13 has a discord for individuals who we have put on a Hospital list/dnh due to emergency situations that people have had in real life. The announcement by Scopley today dealing with a 30d shield doesn't help them out at all. How do we deal with those players @earnest harness @tropic ibex
To me it looks like the Ortegas Meta event ends up 4 shards shorter than the Uhura Meta
this is due to that day one error?
https://stfc.space/events/62c702c510e210b656313cb1 https://stfc.space/events/62c5b13a10e210b656197370
The largest Star Trek Fleet Command (STFC) information site, featuring information on ships, officers, systems, hostiles, research and more.
Ortegas 4 in total
Uhura 6
We are missing 2 Ortegas shards now
@wanton copper I'm not F2P so won't have a problem, but I have no doubt you will have plenty of others shouting in 2 weeks time if they are short.
It would be nice if the officer presets were able to be attained in one of these event stores from a BP or Cosmic Cleanup or what have you. Since I've started the only way to get presets is from Syndicate levels.
Have an active player on your server rob those individuals and after they recover, allow them to rob the rss back.
Seriously
@wanton copper or anyone else that can assist.. Are we getting triumph tokens as part of the rewards for heavy hitter? We did last month but Scopely were delayed in adding ..
@wanton copper Scheduling a 24hrs server vs server event on a weekday is poor scheduling. Many will be unable to take part due to this
Good crews for stella in heavy hitter? Using SNW spock khan and ahvix atm
That's a joke š©
Pretty crazy that scopely put themselves first before their players, especially the ones that could potentially pass (although i sincerely hope that doesn't happen). Can't say im surprised though, typical from scopely
@wanton copper @queen kindle is the building required to invade other servers behind a paywall? Wouldn't be surprised if that stunt is pulled off again. It'd be an absolute embarrassment to the company as us players are having to put up with various bugs, chickenpox all over our screens and poor customer service (giving the same daft answers over and over)
At least in return for all this nonsense we've been put through since the beginning of the game we should be able to aquire the resource required to build it with no paywall
How about this: make the building free, but if you don't build it you can neither invade, nor be targetted by invaders, and you don't get the buff if your server wins.
I mean, it's too late to implement that of course but whatever.
A thousand+ players are about to invade your server without knowledge of your roe or diplomatic agreements. I'm just suggesting a way for you to preserve your community's spirit in the face of this. If you do nothing, I'm pretty sure they're gonna get robbed.
I doubt they will come in their thousand's if they can't build it bcus it's stuck behind a bloody paywall
Just waiting for the pack to come out and it'll be like £45
Speaking of pricing, they really expect us to pay Ā£90/ā¬99 for a pack that differs in contents between servers? As well as a cost of living crisis that is hitting the globe hard?
Aren't they already getting a good enough salary?
I don't think the new building will be pay walled, they will simply give us the special resources when they feel it's ok to do so, like it was for the treasury
what I think is that they will source very little of the currency needed for upgrading it, and then sell more in the store for the whales
Yeah, look again at what you wrote and the problem in this whole event comes to lightā¦.
You'll need to be more specific. That answer's for a player who wants to protect the rss of long-term away players who had previously been covered by a server-wide agreement.
Cmonn candle you know fine well yourself when scopely does one thing they do the opposite and make it much worse, i know it cus I've been here since the beginning and i can say that on behalf of everyone
Common sense plays a key part in keeping players happy, if there isn't any, then players aren't going to be happy which will lead to more and more quitting the game
And it plays a key part in knowing many people are struggling financially from covid, unemployability to cost of living crisis ,wars and natural disasters. Do you honestly believe we are going to hand all our hard earned money over to scopely so they f it up again?
Im surprised that people are still defending scopely after 3 and a half years of this bs
It was good at the very beginning, but now scopely is getting too greedy and ruining the experience for everyone, even the ones who can afford these ridiculous pack contents that vary between servers. What has happened that it has to be different from server to server? Why are they so expensive when they offer very little resources and in-game currency? Why are they giving us pop-ups to these every time we login? Are they trying to ruin us? Are they trying to make our lives miserable? Cus it certainly looks like it
Why are incursions on Monday, Tuesdayā¦when nobody has time ā¦.why not weekends ??
Last time the Server 128 had only two players in 42-45 bracket. Non above
Scopley said fair Pairing..
Trying to minimize the ability of one server to completely mess up another servers territory defense and takeover efforts.
There will always be those who lap at the seat of power in the hopes they get crumbs
I find it quite sad the folks carrying water for scopy
ššš
People have different lives. For me weekends are the busiest.
I like how they warn players for the s word but not bs ššš
yesterday the ticketed event that reward gas was started late, today two mineral events and no gas
can the events planning guys please stop drinking on the job?
theres 2 ore and no gas ticketed events
So annoying, working on last Ent gun! Need gas!!
āCowards Refugeā - thatās mean as hell, scopely. Way to harshly judge your playebase for how they want to deal with these terrible incursions. @wanton copper
Another high quality event package š¤£
@wanton copper both events with ore rewards? Sure thatās right?
It's hardly a 21st century adjective and I find it offensive but that's my personal view
Check your gift chests. Or the web store if itās not in game. You build it free.
Got it
But for the upgrade parts š”
In the store
It's dear
Or were dear
Before they removed it
I imagine youāll get them for participating in incursions.
Gotta force people down the road somehow.
Laaaaag
leave it to scopely to call all those not interested in the terrible idea of āincursionsā cowards. i mean⦠seriously. low blow.
So much lag,games unplayable
Lol. No gas ticketed event.
Why are 2/3 ticketed events rewarding par and ore? No dil/gas rewards in this set, but double par and ore?
Was just about to report the same @high aurora
No gas ticket event today, but we're getting 2x tomorrow so it evens out.
It is the bottomless impudence and absolute indictment that we have to let know about discord scopley that their dirty servers don't work.... What does that tell us?
They use dev accounts to play the game and call us cowards is the funniest
Yeah there is a dude in green who is very offended by common lexicon that involves urinating into the wind or up a rope š
š«£
the cosmic cleanup Battle Bebris chest needs to be updated to scale with the ship tier of the associated part payout. i have a T8 Vi'dar and i need almost 1/4 mil charged nano probes for my final weapon upgrade and i pick the battle debris chest because i see value in trying to get upgrade parts faster but 110 is a waste of my time and seeing it is infuriating. its 0.04% of one part and i spent an hour roughly earning the galaxy tokens for purchasing it
I dont use the stuff i just hoard it lol
its worthless. the whole event is if you already have the ships
it comes around 1x a week and the rewards dont really allow you to do anything
Yeah i refuse to ever build a amalgam
the tactical supplies advantage chest seems like the best purchase option tbh but even that doesnt ever reward you with enough directives to actually run an armada if you get them
Thanks for screwing 63 on the server pairings. 63-47. Almost every other server pairing is 1-2 apart. Server age my a$$. Same applies to 58-39. Way to screw the younger servers.
Same for us
have to agree, the just used the xslb pairings and called them good, balanced, NOPE
Well we kinda knew we were gonna get screwed when they unlocked ops 60 LAST WEEK even though we only had 4 level 50s on the server.
the arc runners and the dev's all need to be retaught what gambalance is, and it has nothing to do with monitization
Everything you said Svannon is correct except of course the boundaries
I echo what most have already highlighted........THE LAG......come on......how on earth can you do any event or even claim boxes. The lag is making the game completely unplayable
Lag is back, but it was great when the event first started
Where is todays ticketed event for gas rewards? We have crystal and 2 oreā¦ā¦ yet another screwup
Scopely how dare you call your cash cows Cowards itās an event we as players cannot necessarily control due to family life or work and you call paying with time, cash or both. Itāll make me think twice about it after this event
There'll be 2x gas ticketed events tomorrow, to even it out.
I hope it is.. i need it
Everyday, a new screwup. The incompetence is astounding.
yeah but the free gifts
gifts are always free, if not, they are not gifts š
The event gives out too much Tri and no Dil?
2 of the ticketed events are parsteel/ore, and none of them are dilithium/gas
@worn shadow
2 gas ticket events tomorrow
fantastic, thanks
Will the tickets for them be giving as GIFT?
I havenāt check yet how many days of ticket events we had? There is 5 days worth in the battle pass
Sorry if this has been answered but is the sub space station gift locked by ops level?
Probably, what level are you? Also, the gift has been disabled for now to help with the lag.
L34
That should be fine. It's probably still disabled for your server, wait a bit and you'll probably get it.
Ok thanks!
@wanton copper why are you having the server war on weekdays instead of the weekend???
Specifically for S70
I was wonder about that myself! Many of us have job and won't be able to enjoy the event.
many people already finished their SMS before the Server MS appeared. It's not only one guy who finished yet
@tropic ibex The lag is too severe. Even hunting npc's gets ridiculous. Either fix the lag or cancel the event till you work that problem out.
@wanton copper please have a look at this
Events not playable. Thank you $copely, this is a good motivation for people to abandon your crappy app. As you seem to have always wanted, your goal is to make people leave, so you can do another server merge. have fun!
Please donāt even consider enacting Incursions in EU until you sort out the lag problems, it would be a total fiasco
Eco is off work for the weekend mate
Thx - so we are all doomed
The parts are not available to purchase? Will they only be acquired from events ?
@wanton copper š
The unlock parts were sent out as a gift. Some servers however have gifts disabled to reduce lag
Itās already built . I am asking for upgrading parts to take it to a higher level
Doomed regardless mate
Eco is off for the weekend @queen trout
Yay this event just appeared 4h after the events that scores in it so every1 have already finished
Gotcha. Wasnāt exactly clear from your attachments š best raise a ticket with CS
@tropic ibex please have a look into this - lots of score aint counting (yet?)
@tropic ibex do you have any info regarding the pack in shop not having parts to upgrade the new building ?
The lag hasn't gotten any better. 2 years ago, you could dodge other players ships. These days you launch your ship from your base...by the time its stops buffering your ship is dead...you haven't been able to actually move your ship around. Incursions is going to be unplayable...
is scopely aware of no gas rewarded ticketed events?
Yes. Thus tomorrow there will be 2 gas ticket events š
Please lower the requirements to obtain the SNW missions to Ops 28. They are not that hard and shouldn't be Ops 34.
Different issue on my server, it's 8am Sunday and everyone else has done steps meaning I did not get access to the first 3 rewards. There will be people who miss all 4 at this rate.
Have you scored yet?
I just got up and tagged one of the levels for power gain. Need a lot more effort to complete it though.
The server MS event would require you to complete a prep event to score. Or build a ship
Yeah I figured it works like the alliance MS ones where there's a great big "You need to score before a level's completion to get rewards" or something like it.
Youāll get all the rewards once you score
Ah ok, pleasant change then, thanks.
@wanton copper They called it a "Coward Chest" and yet Scopely dares to have a bullying clause? What kind of double standard is this?
Has there been any word on the Scoring for the infrastructure event? It's not giving out 40x points for a defense platform. Should have easily cleared 4M points for the one platform but looks like closer to 160K which is somewhere around a 1.3-1.4x scoring for it.
Itās still scoring off the ābroken pointsā
But not enough to finish the SMS which is tied to the server milestone completion metric. Is the score being worked on?
Itās not being changed
You can build a ship to get the IMS
Not sure it's worth spending faction credits to build a ship I dont really need
It's been going on for long enough without real comment that I don't see reason to hold out for a "fix" for def plats. Maybe it happens, but it's not worth stalling development for that long
You can use it for scrapping at some point š¤·āāļø or for cloaking purposes
Yeah, I'm working on a mayflower now. Just frustrating to have to play games with posted points to work around the game.
Getting questions from my aliiance now. For server MS rewards to get reward do they have to either a/ complete the sms which scores towards it or b/ build a ship which scores? Even if itās āfinishedā then they get the rewards?
well screw me i finished my sms b4 the server MS got released on my server how am i supposed to source the incursion coins then?
Build a ship
If you canāt then put a ticket with CS
#š½-how-to-contact-support
Does the Stella count as a Uncommon G3 Combat ship?
If you complete any points in that IMS/server milestone event during its duration, you should receive rewards for all four milestones even if they were completed before you got points. It doesn't score like CoW.
No
Another xslb with the rewards of a normal slb. Great to see scopely never learns
was there any thought in the process of matchmaking? because 188 vs 201, is a joke really with one server grossly over powering the other.
i dont know how many other servers have this issue but it seems there was little to zero thought behind the process
scores not updating for HH SLB on 133
Restarted app, opened this screen multiple times - whats the trick?
I mean the Retrieving bit - the zero is correct
I mean I was all day offline. And not even XLSB rankings are functional in the Incursion event? Do you think you are ready Scopely?
Triumph Token Chest - Great! Awesome! but one problem (part of a bigger one):
I (and many other players) have built the epic ships. I don't want to ~~build ~~ level a second D4/Ent/Aug and I probably never will. And I definitely don't want to risk a pull for officers I need, only to get BPs I will never use.
All of these ships do have Cloaking available.
We LOVE the Transporter Patterns for Officers, and even the Officer XP gained from C/UC officers is nice.
Let us shred BPs we don't need/want into ShipScrap (TM). That ship scrap can be spent on:
Skins (Epic BPs?)
Cloaks (Epic/Rare BPs?)
Ship XP (Com/UC BPs?)
Fix your game scopely
Hitting ship after ship after ship and slb is not updating
@queen kindle
If I don't get 3rd because my points aren't counting towards the SLB almost all of the time i demand compensation
Sounds like you hit the daily limit of hostiles hit.
Doesnt that only apply to loot? š¤
I've only hit around 50-60
I think someone said itās only loot š¤
Event pts will always count if you meet the reqs, there's no kill limit for that
Yeah thatās what I thought
@empty star then if youāre points arenāt matching with what you think, you would need to make a ticket to CS.
Basically the thing that decides how balanced the severs are against each other isnāt very accurate š¤
The one with the higher milestone is an older server
I did at 6 this morning, still haven't got back to me
Older or more active?
Getting beyond p off
Thx
Our paired server is a year older š
I wonder - maybe the point system is different to counter that
Weāll have to wait and see, the XSLBs havenāt been handicapped tho
I doubt it
Well i see a wave of feedback rolling in. And then Scopely will change it for next time š
Already put one complaint about it to CS, expecting a stock answer but hey, gotta start somewhere
This is the game behind the game š
A "Wave"? You're spelling "Tsunami" wrong
I will be demanding compensation for all the bs I've had to put up with tday
Your demanding in the wrong place. Talk to CS
#š½-how-to-contact-support
They have a 3-5 business day response time
So they purposely want to jeopardize your SLB?
I see
Cheers for the info
Great customer support they said they'd provide
Couldn't be any more wrong
No point being passive aggressive with me. Iām a player, I experience the same things you do
Have you experienced it?
Iāve seen a few people mention it . Normally the 0 score has happened because no critical damage was scored after mitigation
Can you add other events instead of events that require you to spend loads of mats, speedups etc... in the incursions prep events. Atm the whole things feels pay to enter
Good grief. Fleet one is ridiculous. If I tier up my best ship 20 times, I can complete it. Who thought that was a doable event?
Just spent materials and I didnāt even move in the sms ā¦.
have to spend the materials on ships
Ffs š¤¦āāļø need to open my eyes š¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļø
Well after competing in the khan and worf event and 5-6 events for the past month donāt know where they expect us to get more mats or ships from ā¦
Sack the ones that think they events ā¦.
at my level I am expected to spend 1561 uncommon 3* to win the sms, and this event will run twice, so 3122 in total only for the incursions
Spending uc material on station upgrade does not score any point?
If it's the incursion prep event, only counts on ships. Read description
it's like in cosmic cleanup, you need to spend materials on ships upgrades for them to count
I don't have what it need to upgrade my warships. Does spending in miner count?
I think in cosmic cleanup it counts, but I can't say if it will count for this one
Any ship counts
I spent mats on research and got no points on the incursion sms
SHIPS
Read the full event description
It is only on ships
Title fleet also says it all
reading is uncool, general impression in this game
Not my problem 
I wish they did that color coding like they do on the monthly events post in game
Just really make it stand out
How event designers think we play this game.
thats their target audience, rest doesnt count anyway
True, but even their money and patience is finite
you underestimate time and money invested, it takes a lot to abandon the thousands and thousands of dollars you dumped in
Hey Pizza š , you optimistic as always š
Always my fav ghost š
True, but at the end of the day, they can just pull the plug on the whole thing and all that investment is worthless anyway š
imagine if every f2p and low spender stops playing, they just merge servers till every whale is on a single server, then they raise the max level to infinity š
LAG!!
Was that yesterday you posted that or today
Just now, ship stuck in Combat
which deranged lunatic came up with the points requirements for the Incursion Prep: Fleet event lol! I'd have to clear out all of my matierls twice over to get half way through it. Way to try and force packs out of people
I gave up on that event!
Hardly surprising. I won't even start it. Incursion...the laggy money grab arc. Nice
I am going to move my base and shield up, it is a work day!
Its all bojos fault
Servers can't even handle normal traffic atm. I pity anyone that tries to take part in an invasion š¤£
The fleet prep event milestones are nuts
Yup, and no warning that we would need to seek a re-mortgage on properties or sell vehicles to prep for it
Scopely, this event is just awful. At ops 42 I'd need to spend about 300 times the rewards
Whales only club
Today's ticket events don't have parsteel rewards. The Mining & Hostiles tasks both have dilithium rewards.
There were 2 ore ones yesterday
To make up for two par yesterday and no dil options... Lol
If I could afford the packs required to complete Fleet Prep, I wouldn't be on Fleet Command, I'd be sailing my yacht around the world
Or so ai was told didn't look, as I didn't feel like it
We need an extra zero on all the Material spend earnings
Agree, do your maths, this is ridiculous... 15k points for leveling the Augur... š
Lvl41 btw
app restart solves this. need to do this all the time
alternatively something like a helping hand action - might also solve it
It comes and go, I will restart my pc.
Same level here. Need to spend 9500 G4 unc or double that in G3 mats
But only on ships. The 13k in G4 crystal for my shipyard I need to spend won't count.
So what kind of whiskey was the guy drinking when he made this event ? Do you accept drunk people at work ?!?!!?
BTW, ticketed events today twice gas and once crystal. Yday twice Ore and once crystal. Is it really that hard to check things like that?
think that's intentional
it is
yesterday they launched 2 ore events, to correct that mistake they launched 2 gas events today
Fleet prep event = another big fail. Who comes up with these milestones?
Prep Fleet hello? Spend >12k G4U on ships in 24h? On an SMS? š¤¦āāļø
For me to do the event I need to tier up a north cut and a pillum. Or a pillum 3 times . Give the man a pay rise, he deserves it š š š
Event feedback: These milestones for ops 42 are unbelievably absurd.
They only get worse as you ops up. The 50+ people on our server are walking away from it.
Tier up your Enterprise 39x
or
Tier up your Franklin-A 43x
but
Tier up your Valdore only 4x!
This fleet event is horrible. Itās standard rewards for extremely high spend.
And I'd just say "everyone should skip it" and carry on, except....
But Iām totally ready to SPEND 24K G3 UNCOMMON bc who doesnāt have that lying around?
What really sucks is that it is probably going to negatively affect completing last server event milestone.
Eh, you are probably right, why give everyone an extra 10 incursion currency when they can buy them starting tomorrow.
You spelled "crack" wrong.
oh, THAT wasnt my point, just that this being incompletable for the vast majority really scr-- uh, messes us up.
but - if your supposition was actually the real intent, yikes.
Why else have an event, that scores for a larger event, impossible to complete for FTP and dolphin players? Not every server is packed with whales. I would say that only 3-5% of players on my server have the cash to complete this event. See what happens, but I donāt see it happening on my server.
Has always been one each but dunno
It was apparently very easy to complete for <40's. I would hope that the cause is that the event was deployed with incorrect milestone scaling.
Prep event for Fleets? as an OPS38 to stand any chance of completing this I had to do the following:
Buy 2 BPs to finish off 100/100 Bortas BPs
Build said Bortas
Tier it until I hit a crystal wall
Buy the BPs for a Mayflower
Build said Mayflower
Tier it to T3
that's not sustainable
I mean, you gave us a bonus refinery not an utterly epic refinery that flooded us with Mats....get you heads out of your rears before you have no more players. Last few months have been completely pathetic. Such high hopes for this year, but as usual we got Scipley'd.
If at least common G2/3/4 would count, but this...
This event is so screwed up. How does an ops 39 have a 33k level top milestone, and an ops 41 have a 378k top milestone
I mean seriously, I know at 41 we have more expensive shops to upgrade, but wtaf?
I can't score 378k in ship upgrades
And why do g3 mats give you half the points of g4?! G4 costs are waaaay higher than g3 in terms of amounts required. They should at least be equal in points scored
My event feed back. This event scoring needs reworked. A lot.
I say letās feed it back to scopley from the opposite direction š¤Ŗ
Is this fleet prep event for real!?!?!? I don't know if I could do it in a month!
Arcs are getting worse, events are getting worse, I'm not surprised more and more ppl are quitting.
This is totally crazy. 12k 3* mats after weeks of autions. Yah, cyz anyone has that lying around. Yet another proof that incursions is really intented to be a whale event they need us Chum to participate in so they whales have food to eat. Great business practices, messing over the little guys. Geeze scopely, get it together!
This lot never has a finger on the pulse.
This event is a farce.
I donāt think arcs have really changed. Some have better rewards than other. Real question is there really a need to have a new feature each month? They really need to just work on improving the features we already have.
Stop this run of never ending spend events.
They should first fix the bugs that are there, including the lags we get over and over again.
I'm not crying for more and more content, this looks anyway Already like they don't know what to implement next to squeeze more money out of the players.
MS2 of the free battlepass has 30
@wanton copper the scoring in the Incursion Prep:Fleet is WAY off for low level players. You have to spend 800 G2 uncommon to complete the event at Ops Level 12, that's an insane amount and needs correcting. We MUST look after newer players in the game in regards to balance and achievable targets
The Incursion Event is disgustingly unbalanced.
Even on higher levels
I just don't get the purpose of it - what's the point in frustrating your player base with sth like that?
Agreed, although applies to all levels and all players
800G2 is as unachievable as 5k G4 for me.
What happens for to the unfortunate alliances that can't complete milestones?
$$
You had enough for 3 events, looks like you did more than 1 in 1 day
Take a deep breath and try smile through the pain
I had the same, Iām lvl 46. Itās ridiculous
dear Scopely... get lost
Yes, if you did all three then you used three days worth of tickets in one day š
And the day before
3 tickets, 3 days, or if the events fit, do 1 2 or 3 on one day
Ask your friendly neighborhood whale to complain. Tis the only way to see a change for the fleet event
Just chiming in with everyone else, the incursion sms today is simply not reasonable, whatever the event designer is smoking, I want some of that, because this is top 3 of the most poorly balanced sms ever to have been released by Scopely
Utter nonsense event
Come on Guys! At least there was no scoring issue today?
They want us to pay stupid money when most of us on restricted budget. Everything in packages of multiple items half you don't need.
I asked the other day about 30 day shield I got back 2 figues $160 & £90
They want players to spend money on packs. Here is a million dollar idea. Instead of starving then population in hopes some will spend. Make the packs worth the money you ask for and players will spend. The value of the vault of lat says all it has to about scopley and itās methods.
They could have said: use materials to upgrade your ships / use ship exp / use epic warf on the bridge or khan ( as you advertised them ). Anything else that is doable but not this pile of ā¦ā¦ the bot is rafinery doesnāt pay tens of thousands of unc rare or epic . Even if it did ⦠who in their right state of mind would wait for an event to upgrade and spend their mats ( when we had 6+ spending events in the past month ) ā¦.. ?!
@wanton copper @tropic ibex is anything going to be done about releasing the server milestone late on a bunch of servers? As it stands now a bunch of people on my server are in the position where we haven't scored on the server milestone event because we finished our associated sms before the server milestone went live. Now we will have to spend or not get the server milestone rewards. We also may not even finish the server milestone, and if we do not, it will be because the server milestone dropped 4 hours after event reset
I don't like the solution, but the alternative is to build a ship, I recycled my Stella to get the rewards/progress :\
I'm pretty sure the stella doesn't count for that event
As in building it will not get you points for the server milestone
I don't have time to recycle my stella anyway
Takes 10h, was OK.
It's over 20 for me
Shouldn't be taking 20 hours to scrap a Stella, you need to do some research
I've done the scrapping research in station, and scraping building is catching up
Even if I maxed it out for my ops lvl it would take a longer to scrap than the event has left
Apex Chop Shop in Outlaw research
Thanks. I just hit ops 32 yesterday and haven't gotten my scrapyard to 31 yet
I guess the incursion prep: fleet is not meant to be completed. Its milestones are absurd
I did two prime researches and got it, but yeah, its pretty crazy.
You can build any G3 or better to kick lose those server milestone rewards. In fact, my alliance went on a ship building spree to finish the alliance sms. Doing that fleet sms was out of the question for a lot of us, but the alliance sms also scores ship building.
Yeah also had that idea and build a saladin in advance - but would need to tier saladin up 70x to max points
Anyways i will ignore the event
I'd say the milestones for the incursions prep events are too high, but it doesn't really matter. I'm not interested in incursions or their associated pre events.
Lets see how the main event looks like
Nah, I'm taking my coward refuge reols and shield and hanging out <19 til they're over.
Does anyone know where the new SNW missions are this ARC? My Holodeck is empty. I have Diodes but no missions to collect
Ops level 27, I hope that recent changes to the holodeck structure does not mean that players cannot save these missions and do them later on.
Min ops level 35 for missions, I believe
Yes but in the past that has not precluded from taking and banking them
So now what happens? Do we have buy them from the holodeck with $s in the future <@&509691611903426561>
my expectation is that you get them later through holodeck - once you are 35
I have flipped from positive to negative on the holodeck if this is now the case
This doesnāt have anything to do with the Holodeck though
Itās happened on numerous occasions that not every mission is available to lower ops levels
I find the ābelow 34/35 gets noneā quite steep though
Especially as the event for the mission gives 15k lat š
missing for me
Fear Itself
I miss the last 2 side missions needed to complete the mission event, did they still have to release them?
Can't even get first milestone on Fleet Prep mission. Thanks Scopely, top notch for balanced events
505k points needed for completion. I've scraped all I can together and got 80k points. First milestone is 101k. Always nice to be given impossible events
They're greedy
I wouldn't mind a slightly tricky event. But if I wanted to use Uncommon G3 materials for this, I'd need 25,298....How is that a reasonable figure?!
Or tier a D4 or Ent 39 times...equally realistic
Aye the odd tricky event is fair enough but when it's consecutive it gets boring and annoying
Nah, they just forgot to add the "Heroic" tag again.
Forget Heroic, that event needed a MasterCard logo
Haha. 5K? Try adding a zero... per month
LOL Yea I have no idea how much they spend, its worse then a gambling or meth addiction lol.
wow they removed my message and warned me about boycotting - who said anything about boycotting
I said how to get SCOPLY to listen
I never said stop playing the game
Telling people to not spend, it telling people to boycott spending š
Yep
No its not
... it really is, but ohwell š
Sounds about right
join the military and learn what freedom of speech is
before you tell me what I am saying
Soo, you don't understand how freedom of speech applies on private forums as well, cool š
I don't understand what your saying.... how it applies?
it either is, or it isn't honored
you dont get to pick and chose how you apply it
š¤£
Freedom of speech applies to what the government can tell you you can or can't say. It does not apply to what a private company chooses to allow on it's privately run forums.
... but 'merica?!
Long and short... if the mods decide to ban the word 'cheese' they can do that
Or ban Walter in game.
Because they can choose what rules to apply or not, because it's not a government institution.
For reference, the text of the First Amendment, which is what guarantee's freedom of speech, is: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
As you can see, it is quite specific in what it applies to.
Which additionally, only applies in the USA
whatever drink more of the Koolaid fantasy warriors - spend your money on something that makes you feel accomplished. I will enjoy life with real people and continue to watch the complaints and crying post
am i the only one who thinks the event store is useless? its only pay to use....no sourcing whatsoever, the only time i could use it is from the first day rewards, what the hek?
... weren't you just complaining that you were censored? 𤣠Sorry to burst your Freedom of Speech 'Murica bubble
Interesting fallback though
What does my prior comment have to do with anything your saying right now
APAC 188 v 201: The rival server we're matched with doesn't seem to have a lot of G4/G5 ships, making it quite difficult to complete this event for Ops 50+ players
so.. buy the officers or pop 150 ships. Doable but not a reasonable grind. Is anyone else thinking someone has designed these milestones without talking to anyone at all about what the game is like to play?
you're replaying to my comment which states nothing of censorship - stop trolling your not very good at it
"wow they removed my message and warned me about boycotting - who said anything about boycotting"
sounds like crying to me š
reply to the correct comment then so people know what your trying to troll about
A had nothing to do with B... Have nice day I'm going outside now.
no tokens for holodeck in a week either
ouch, what's the 'loss' scoring like?
ouch... uh... ask someone nicely to splatter your realta a few times? š
are you ops 42+ at least?
Ohhh, wait
wrong way around š
yeah,. you're stuffed....
Let's make an event where we force everyone into 2 systems to compete for reds, it's gonna be a good time (says no one ever)
Events are not giving rewards
on an Incursion server if that helps. 195
@wanton copper ^
@wanton copper Welp, i guess 195/193 are the test subjects again. Just a heads up, Events are not giving rewards even if completed. The invaders can not repair their base or ships. Ships always show as full health. They also can't relocate after being attacked. They are just stuck.
No event payouts on 188 as well
Correction, looks like they were able to relocate finally. But not after getting pounded.
Didnāt have to be this way. The community begged them to hold off and do more stress testing of the mechanics before pushing them on us.
When the players have a better idea of their capabilities than the dev team, you know things arenāt going to go well.
There is so much lag...Bases cannot be repaired. Ships cannot be repaired. What a disaster.
Iām shocked! (Said absolutely no one)
Or they are just hiding them. 4.1B tritanium and 800m dilithium to repair a blown up Northcutt doesn't seem like fun for one side. LOL
Incursion event fail. Lag lag lag. Completed events but no rewards have dropped.
Scopely canāt even get it right with single servers. How did they think this would work?
Bugs with incursion (attacking side) - no points for raiding bases. Ships in base being raided do not get destroyed. No event milestone rewards including battlepass.
And encouraging the defending side to bring out some ships for points is just not happening š¤Ø
Well I suppose it's a hunt for all the pvp centric folks then. Who would have thought that participation would be an issue.....
You could always try and post a message in galaxy chat with a meeting place
I think we should buy more packs so they have the funds to fix the issues
That's an easy grind, if triple lock and doing your daylies that's 50 fraction, 22 swarm with a frank A so almost half just by your daylies, then you have the BP event so your going to get some hostiles from. Exchange... You are mostly there...
Ehhhmmmmā¦..is incursions not free?? Because I doubt many will pay ā¦..even whales!
That's for people who want more than the 2 transfers over that you should have gotten through the prep server milestone event.
So we get 2 free goesā¦..then pay! Hmmmmmm
sounds like a crack dealer
You get enough to do the events normally for free, the rest which is extras is paid for
As an APAC server resident (187) I can tell that incursions event is even worse than I thought it will be.
- Scoring is laggy, or even not happening (I'm waiting over half an hour to get my points).
- Doing this event during Rules of Acquisition is really great idea (sic!) .
- 90% players of my server went to lvl19 or lower systems and shielded and don't participate.
I guess no one likes to be bullied, because this event is all about being bullied by ppl with more money.
cargos would explode? This is weird
After this attack you posted with ships destroyed,, you still cannot use cargos to loot?
log
No, they are destroyed
Just gotta ask the obvious question, they arenāt repairing correct?
na, partial repair?
Iāve done it. Just takes one gun to kill a survey ship. Doesnāt show up as much of any hull health (especially at that level)
There is something wrong in the kingdom of Denmark...
State š
Thanks APAC for Alpha testing. Tomorrow comes Beta Test
Next time you create events, you should think about creating a set of events that encourages the high risk/high reward of being out on a server during an incursion. Think a SLB with massive payouts for mining/hostile killing that rewards someone for being out there with a high probability of being attacked.
Events like this PAIRED WITH player kill/damage/steal would go a long way to not creating ghost towns where only whales come out.
Wait are you raiding someone from your server on the other side?
nope, look at "199 rival" above strength
I dont understand, why you have increased the difficulty level of thw SNW eclipse event. It wad before a lot of boring grinding and now we have more of this. And why are such events not at the end of the Arc when the players have a real chance for the officers. This is Not longer PvE / PvP. This is only pay to win...
Just kill 150 hostiles of any hostile. One of the most straight forward events ever
I just put all the SNW guys on the bridge and battle pass points and eclipse thingy was done at the same time
This. I had the SNW event and my BP in one or two hulls.
W/o the SNW officers
24 points per shot with 2 snw officers
is that still the case ?
the server incursion between 188 and 201 is the most mis-matched thing ever. have not seen one single player that i can win against, and when its all just one sided with a huge disadvantage, makes me want to ask for all my money back ! i didnt sign up for this to be target practice to a bunch of players at least 10 levels higher than me !
Still no rewards on 195 since event start.
Maybe we should all start flooding the channels and in game galaxy chat with the football song āScopely, you donāt know what your doing, you donāt know what your doingā lol
Did someone get the compensation chest, scopely told us for compensation of the massive lags on the EU servers?
Or is this laggy to? šš³
I saw. But from Monday is only about 1 and a half hour left in my region.
Did you also see he would let you know when itās sent?
I think the āthe compensation chest isnāt ready yetā was basically letās wait and just do one free gift as we know incursions is broken otherwise we have to give two out
And did you see him letting you know?
OK, thanks. I only had seen the information at the official announcement channel.
Lol official announcement but not a useful announcement š¤£
So many issues in the official announcements. Wonder how many of those things could have been taken care of if there had been ANY sort of play testing before hand.
Lol testing costs money! And lack of testing would normally cost reputation loss but scopely are already rock bottom hence why they donāt care š¤£
@wanton copper Gift chests with shields for all our members who used them in low level territories already are needed.
@wanton copper and relocation tokens as loads of us moved in advance because we knew it would break
And that is from eu server players as we couldnāt trust you not to mess the schedule up and hit our server early
Who could have seen this coming? Your trash is so predictable.
scopley didnt sell enough packs and had to scrap incursion event hahahha
Canāt event push announcements correctly š
re: Infinite Inursions.... CALLED IT!
The next version is called Infinite Loop
@wanton copper Will there be any replacement Sourcing for Subspace Relay or Una since both were to be done through Incursions? TBD?
Unbelievably poor Scopley. Unforgivable, yet sadly, so predictable.
The time and efforts (and doubtless, money too) we the players have poured into preparing for the Incursions eventā¦.
The frequency and predictability of game and event failings will likely be the undoing of this game.
Queue up the end credits. Game over.
Hey yāall are gonna burn out Carl the warning bot!!šššš
Just ended up being a "drain dead bases event "
@wanton copper Battlepass points have not been applied today when event has been complete. Also Lat Rush points and prizes.
Scopely,
Last month you locked me out for 3 days. This month you tried to feed me to the whales and failed. Are you trying to tell me something?
well when your game's progression system is butt why would you wanna go out and get hit by people 10+ levels above you for no points lol
You should send the incursion event to trash bin forever not postpone it. Your entire player base has concerns about its rollout since it was announced
I think that incursions was fantastic I enjoyed it immensely
Smashed hulls for 6 hrs
The plan is to still run the same amount of Incursion events once the issues Commanders were experienced are resolved
Soooo next arc?š
Lol so incursions are coming back in 2035?
Wait scoring lag points issues will finally be fixed? If it took this then yay!!!
Incursion is a waist of time event.... Boring
@wanton copper why don't they integration and user/play test stuff before pushing out to the entire client base? Can you ask them please? Thanks.
@Eco Here's an idea. Beta Testing.
Test BEFORE rollout
@wanton copper can we get events that work right 1st time.
The sad part is when your entire playerbase isnt suprised
How do you beta test a game in alpha ?
Impossible
They machine test not live test therefore kaboom
It was a shakedown cruise⦠donāt have a meltdown over it š¤¦š»āāļø
Machine test is no replacement for actual user testing of new features and changes tho.
Well umm... SMH IDK...
I would seriously look for another job if the company I worked for had so many upset/angry customers and they would not even care about fixing it
Please stop running events with officers we donāt have access to.
@wanton copper and server matching! What was that matching servers with way bigger ones?
how about you refund everybody that bought a pack within the last 3 days gearing up for this event
or maybe take that money and hire real staff and not interns.
#StrangeNewBugs
@wanton copper , i hope they pay you well enough, its a tough ship to sail on
@wanton copper can you remove this lie "Our goal always is to provide an experience that is first and foremost fun for everyone playing Star Trek Fleet Command." from your announcement. You know a large portion of your players do not like, enjoy, or have fun from "pvp" and will in no way enjoy or have fun...
Could we do different server pairings for cross server events and not have the same ones every time. It feels no different than constantly playing against people on the same server. And s15 are really boring opponents. š
fun is in the eye of the beholder, while pvp should be more interactive, i and many others still enjoy making stuff go explode
takeovers that are busy are always laggy they neekto fix that as wlel
I didn't say no one will, but many will not and they know this thus it is a lie that they were amingfor fun for all.
and many will
Read what I wrote
i did and i disagree
